Varied urban definitions of New Age. Ex rhymes with sewage is one of the comments at the above.
In a sense that is new age to twist and or make associations with other words. This is of course very common today but less so 30 - 70 years ago.

With advance of internet humans can share a much wider range of words and concepts so much quicker that making word associations is common place.
